Square Medallion from Trove, 8 Oct 1932
This square medallion is a pattern from the Trove site published on 8 Oct 1932, in 'Our Women's Section' of the Weekly Times.
Shuttle-tatted with #20, measuring 8cm square. |
The square should shape out better with blocking which I have not done in this photo.
The original instructions were to tat this in three parts; the centre ring, the middle small medallion, and finishing with the outer border, cutting after each part.
I have tatted with two shuttles so I can use the split ring and split chain techniques to complete this without cutting the thread after each part.
I tatted the centre ring and jumped out with a split ring for the small medallion in the middle. To finish the 2nd part, I made a split chain followed by another split ring to jump out to part 3.
I am going to work on the round medallion next.
Good not to have three lots of ends to hide.
ReplyDeleteThat looks good. I too like to update older patterns to avoid cut/ties.
ReplyDeleteNice square! :)
